I never use snapshot as it is no where need as powerful as a simple copy and paste. Select clip A, Ctrl+C, select clip B, Ctrl+V. If you only want some parameters to go across to the second clip use Shift+Ctrl+V.

Usually I increase exposure and contrast settings by a similar amount with our Red footage to give a "normal" look to the image. When I save that snapshot and apply it to a subsequent (similar looking) shot, it burns it out, even though the sliders move correctly to their new positions. Resetting the sliders does not reset the image properly either.

This has only started to happen since upgradng to (Neo4K) 5.1.2.271.

I think that being able to save a snapshot is a very useful feature, and would like it to work properly possible.

This is what I've always done and it seems to work perfectly. I tried snapshot in the early days for FL somehow it never made sense for me. I turned to copy/paste and it has always worked seamlessly for me.

Yes, copy & paste works fine - I just find it convenient to save a snapshot so that when I come across a shot from a batch which I've worked on previously I can recall the snap to get a quiick correction.

I guess that was the reason CineForm develoed it in the first place!

Alex, do you have the same problem as me in not being able to reset the blown out image you get when applying the snapshot, by using the sliders? I discovered that I can reset it by having the data on the clipbord, applying ctrl-V (which copies the new settings correctly), and then resetting the sliders.

For my money Snapshot is a useful feature and CineForm should get it working properly.

I just need a quick test of the snapshot and it is work fine. The only parameter it don't change here was input(encode) curve, and it shouldn't be changing that, as that is modeling the source image not the output. Are you commonly changing the encoding curve, if so why?

We've been working mostly with Cineform RAW, but the problem is the same with RGB444.
It's only happened since we changed from Prospect 4K to Neo4K

When FL opens it's default Input curve is SiLog and the output curve Video Gamma. I have been changing the output curve to SiLog i.e. same as the input curve. Whatever settings I make (or don't make) to the curves, the snapshot problem is the same (copy & paste is always O.K.).

It always seems to over-expose, but the colour sliders move to the positions given by the SS, so there is a mis-match between what the sliders say and what you see in the image.

When this happens I cannot reset the shot (to which the SS has been applied) to its original state by resetting the sliders, but if I apply ctl-v to the shot the sliders stay the same and the image alters to the correctly adjusted picture, resetting the colour sliders then reverts the image to original.
